I’ve been using tret since august. I should be seeing results by nowThat's the purpose of tret you fucking retard. All the acne you have that's hidden under your skin will pop out and then disappear as time goes
I’ve been using tret since august. I should be seeing results by nowIt’s called purging and most people experience it.
Maybe your skin is allergic and tret results in an immune response that causes acne idk. Try something like azelaic acid if your skin doesn’t respond well to retinoids considering your acne was mild.I’ve been using tret since august. I should be seeing results by now

Then I think it’s clear that your acne is hormonal and at the least you should be considering accutane.Used that shit it doesn’t work

he obviously has sensitive skin and fucked his skin barrier do you want to make him rope?if its still shit after 3 month of usage then increase in concentration
he should use altreno lotion form tret which hydrates the skin of taz cream which does not have pore clogging ingredients.he obviously has sensitive skin and fucked his skin barrier do you want to make him rope?
cant really tell without pics anyway @mog_me do you have side effects like dry red skin, does moisturizing sting?he should use altreno lotion form tret which hydrates the skin of taz cream which does not have pore clogging ingredients.
Yes when I used tret but I haven’t used it in like 4 dayscant really tell without pics anyway @mog_me do you have side effects like dry red skin, does moisturizing sting?
i suggest you rest until you feel your skin is fully healed, should take about 1-2 weeks, then start with the lowest concentration you can get and apply less than a pea sized amount to the whole face every 2-3 days. it will take a bit long but its the only way for sensitive skincels. you can increase the dose graduallyYes when I used tret but I haven’t used it in like 4 days
0.05 is the weakest and only strength I haveYou damaged your skin barrier, a lot of peoples skin can't handle strong retinoids. Stop using it and baby your skin while restoring your barrier with light hydrating products and a thick moisturizer at night.
You said you're 16 so you're probably going through hormonal acne which tretinoin likely can't fix. You can either get on accutane or wait until you're done puberty.
If you really want to use a retinoid, wait until your barrier is fully healed (will probably take a few weeks) and try short contact therapy with adapalene.
But yeah, don't listen to the people saying you're purging or that you should go up in strength, you're irritated.
Honestly idk what the cause of my acne is but I honestly think it’s from tret because I had mild acne before using it and the acne got worse and worse until it started scaring and it hasn’t gotten better for monthsYou damaged your skin barrier, a lot of peoples skin can't handle strong retinoids.
